EPISODE SUMMARY
I was saddened to learn of the death of Pete Rose who died yesterday at the age of 83. He was one of my earliest childhood heroes. I disliked Gene Garber for striking out Pete in his chase of Joe Dimaggio's 56-game hitting streak. As a five year old I tried to play like him. RIP Pete Rose.
In 1932, Babe Ruth called his shot .... or maybe he didn't.
In 1961, Roger Maris hit homer #61 in the final game of the year.
In 1962, a little creative groundskeeping helped the San Francisco Giants slow down Maury Wills and the Los Angeles Dodgers.
And in 1975, it was the 'Thrilla in Manilla'
